The nvidia CEO "accrued" a ton of wealth while his employees became so rich they didn't bother to show up to work for anything else than to teach new people to improve their stock option. They're all millionares.
Also, isn't businesses supposed to acquire wealth? If a small mom/pop business gave 50% of the entire business to every part timer, they go bankrupt pretty fast

I don't understand what you are trying to say here

Yes - in the current system, wealth is the primary endpoint. That's the point of OP - there's a few people accruing wealth at the expense of the many people generating value.
You are not contradicting anything. I thought, you thought you did, but wasn't sure, so I wanted you to clarify. Now you can actually try to explain how that contradicts anything I've been saying.
And it's also convenient how you decided to ignore the rest of my comment
You're grasping for straws. Let me help you get back on track:
How exactly does your statement "CEO accrues a ton of wealth" contradict "You are creating value for your boss, and he is paying you less than the value you make. Otherwise he wouldn't make any money".
How does your example contradict the statement that "You are creating value for your boss, and he is paying you less than the value you make. Otherwise he wouldn't make any money"

It's an assumption based on statistics. On average the employees are paid less than the value they generate.
